I have been in contact with the wonderful people at Glass Hive regarding buying one of their kilns.

It was brought to my attention by Michael (one of the Glass Hive people) that they do not have CSA approval.

I'm not sure if this is that big of a deal or not. There is a concern that if I get inspected (I'm working as a hobbyist at my Condo) that I could be fined and forced to get rid of my non-CSA rated equipment or if there was an insurance claim that needed to be made, it could be rejected.

What are your thoughts? Do you know of a reliable and quality kiln that is CSA approved for use in Canada?
